No Bake Protein Cookie Dough
My Healthy Cookie Dough with protein powder is the best high protein dessert to satisfy that sweet tooth. No bake and ready in 10 minutes!
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon natural peanut butter
- ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt (plus more as needed)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
- 2 tablespoon vanilla protein powder
- 3-4 tablespoon oat flour or almond flour
- Pinch of salt
- 3 tablespoon of mix-ins of choice chocolate chips, M&Ms, oats, etc.!
Instructions
- In a medium bowl mix together peanut butter, Greek yogurt, maple syrup (and vanilla extract if using) until smooth.
- To the same bowl, stir in protein powder, oat flour and salt. Mix well.
- Add mix ins and stir again. Place in the freezer for about 5 minutes to chill and firm up slightly. If you are still noticing the consistency is too thin- you may increase the amount of oat flour by the teaspoon until your desired consistency is reached. Enjoy!
Notes
Please note depending on how runny your peanut butter is you may need to adjust the oat/almond flour to meet desired consistency preferences! I typically recommend 3-5 tbsp!
The sweetness of your portein powder will also affect the taste- if you are user a sweeter protein powder you may be able to decrease the amount of maple syrup! If you are using a more neutral tasting protein powder you can add more maple syrup!
